They also reportedly pushed to terminate the Israel-Jordan peace treaty and referred to as on the U.S. ambassador to Jordan to protest U.S. guidance for Israel.

The suggestions came one working day after Jordan’s Overseas Ministry stated the region sent a “decisive letter” to Israeli Ambassador to Jordan Amir Weissbrod, a letter that involved a get in touch with “to promptly cease all Israeli violations and all Israeli attempts to transform the historical, legal status” at the web-site.

We condemn the Israeli occupation authorities’ provocative methods and ongoing violation of worldwide law, as effectively as their attempts [to] change the historic and authorized condition in occupied Jerusalem and its holy web-sites.”
